Forums - Gaming Discussion - Assassin's Creed Unity is 900p/30fps on both PS4 & Xbox One 'to avoid all the debates and stuff'

Lazy port?? From preview builds it seems that Ubi is up against the wall in getting all the bugs fixed and performance up to snuff. If anything, the developers had to make a decision on delivering the game on both platforms with rock solid framerates. Just because the PS4 is more powerfull that does not mean in all scenarios it will run at 1080P. If anything, the X1 might suffer frame drops and inconsistent graphics while the PS4 is rock solid. Without having the finished game who knows how each game will perform.

I'm kind of glad Ubisoft is doing this. All the resolutiongate garbage instigated by Sony fanboys. Well it's backfired now hasn't it?

Things always backfire when it hate is involved. I knew some backlash would come from all this resolution gate crap.

ROFL@Xbox Haters.

Microsoft probably paid for parity.


Dragon Age has marketing rights with Microsoft as well from EA. I'm calling it now, EA is going to create parity for it.

Ubisoft already admitted that they created parity to "avoid debate". They actually did the opposite.

Thank fuck for PC's.. Don't have to deal with this kind bullshit on there.

Unless they pull a WATCH_DOGS! Deliberately leaving out PC-centric features from the final release is absolutely bogus!

Lets hope not >_> The reveal at E3 2012 is what the game should've been like.

HAHA One of the funniest posts about the parity

Lol, yea that is pretty funny.  The only thing you would have to reduce is the AI.  And let's be honest, that's just a BS excuse anyway, as I'm sure Unity's AI is nothing special compared to other 1080p games on the PS4.  What's hilarious is some Xbox fans actually trying to say that this means the PS4 gimped the One version.  Seems they don't understand that a slightly higher clockspeed does not equal better CPU.  In fact, a couple websites did benchmarks on both CPUs and found that the PS4 slightly outperformed the XBOs, probably due to fewer bottlenecks.

@ OP

Ubisoft deserves all the hate, as well as the lower sales, they are going to get from this.  Well, that is if they don't pull an AC4 and release a Day 1 patch that ups the res.  Personally, if they do release a patch, I'll get it new.  If they don't, I'll buy it used or not at all.  Parity is not to be accepted.  I don't remember devs running to the PS3's rescue early last gen and gimp the 360 version of multiplats, so why start now?  MS money is really all I can think of.  They do have exclusive advertising rights this time around.

People have to stop complaining. These consoles are not powerful, and 900p is still quite decent. I'd prefer better AI, better textures, more people on screen, more immersive world than 1080p anyday!


yes we need 1000 mindless irrlelvent people on screen to pointlessly kill, really adds to the game ehh.  

Or you can have 1000 AI individual who have something to do that is not totally scripted.  Reacting to things that happen around them in a believable manner making the people and environments including the characters believable.  The first Assassin creed was promoted to doing such a thing but fell way short.  It seems that Ubi is trying again to present that kind of world.  When all is said and done is a few pixel which get scaled to 1080P any way more important than making the world more believable?

As someone who was hyped for this game, what a bunch of BS. I'll buy this second hand because Parity is a bunch of BS. Holding back the PS4 just because MS put out an underpowered machine is in no way reasonable.  I'd rather my money go to Gamestop. 


What ever happened to playing a game because it's fun? Just because the game is designed to look the same as it would on any other platform doesn't make the game any less fun. I mean, do you really call yourself a gamer?


Well by the looks of your profile picture you think gamers should have sex with their consoles.  If that is what is required to be a "Gamer" these days, count me out!



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.

I think the reason i find it so easy to relate to angry PS fans on this issue is having spent so many years watching the PC being held back by the PS3/360.

Seeing Ubisoft attempt to continue that trend just after the PS4/X1 had released? Oh lord, someone hand me a gun.
